Summary
[edit]DescriptionBelgium-6337 - Cloth Exchange (14083505045).jpg |
English: The rectangular hall adjoining the belfry was built as the headquarters of the cloth trade that made the city rich during the Middle Ages. Inside cloth was officially inspected and measured and transactions negotiated. As the cloth industry lost importance, the hall drew new occupants, including a militia guild and a fencing school. The cloth hall's construction started in 1425 and ended 20 years later, with only seven of eleven planned bays completed. In 1903, the structure was extended by four bays in accordance with the original plan.
The Belfry Tower in Ghent is the 12th century Bell Tower that is located in the city's historical centre. The Belfry is called Belfort in Flemish. This Gothic medieval complex of bell tower and cloth exchange is evidence of Ghent's power and wealth during the Middle Ages, when it was for a time the richest city north of the Alps. |
